(click on the picture to see more images and then click miniatures to enlarge the photos) The category for senior sport is defined as over 35.  Meet the seniors defying norms in categories such as 85 - 89, 95-99 and even over 100. Seniors are disrupting outdated notions on aging; running, jumping, throwing and lifting themselves to gratifying heights. But it isn’t all about winning or setting records. Beyond the personal achievement and endorphin rush, sports also provide a sense of belonging, especially at an age when losing family and friends becomes more frequent. Moreover, engaging with others, helps fight loneliness, depression, stress and anxiety, key factors associated with chronic health conditions. Deafening cheers accompany every athlete, while friends congratulate and console each other in an emotionally charged atmosphere where every participant is a big winner.
